Honeymoon travel-from Dubai to Egypt (Egypt)

The first blow of Cairo

Ancient civilizations of Egypt gave us gift is tattered Dim airport scenery and customs staff and drawn out strange work style.

Wait for the left blank when checking the team very long, but staff but with a cigarette, circulated a passport in a lazy. In the customs of the currency exchange point, an Arab man in exchange for a few fold dollars, grab a large separate plug in two staff shirt pocket, standing at the back for Exchange district 200 dollars in me a bit nervous, I don't have to pay so much tips?

In the end I did not pay a tip took EGP slipped, and cannot contribute to the national staff of corruption.

Row of the team for a long time to get back to the Passport left blank when I am on a glass window inside the poker face to say thanks, Arabic pronunciation is "Suk Lyme," poker face even laughed, and I said no problem.

In Hou guest area found here to meet our drivers.

I found the lonely planet on a Cairo downtown Hostel in contact, the messages received after the reply in the past, we asked the hotel boss Zizo help booked a car, to the airport to meet us. This arrangement while reducing the alien adventure of fun, but for his lessons not done enough of us turntables Arab bird birds text comparison insurance arrangement.

The driver is a grizzled old people speak English quite well.

He brought us out of the terminal building, airport bus to the car park. And so he started the car and his age car out of the airport, we found that the old man's driving technology how brave. I can't drive, do not know how much his speed in the code, but I can see that he can catch up with many taxi and left them all behind. I clutched worm, worm clutched in front of the back, this way stimulating.

About 40 minutes by car to a stop in downtown Cairo, African Hostel door.

Elderly people to help us get the luggage, we presented to him a box of essential balm（20G） as gifts. Old man holding about research, essential balm（20G） bugs and he explained the purpose of essential balm（20G）, after a bit of pedestrian, plug it in and that he knows what is the essential balm（20g） and stretched thumb with my hands. In fact, with essential balm（20G） to Egypt to be seen on the Internet travels to, when Egypt was like essential balm（20G）, over there this tip can be deemed to be, so I was before, in pharmacies bought 40 bands in the past, this 40 essential balm（20G）, later in the trip continues to be treated as a tip or a gift.

African Hostel placed in an ancient building of the third, fourth floor.

First floor door man-bed on the gate, don't know if that is the guard---friendly hands with us. We followed the drivers entered the gate, turn left next to the patio and a few step, into a shabby elevator. This elevator---after few days I haven't been---it is classic. A large iron box, a few rusty steel rope hanging in my head, the other a nail into the top level of the ceiling, death, I looked up and saw the ceiling seemed to have some cracking. People who entered the elevator, you want to manually pull on the elevator door by pressing and holding the floor, he heard the GA's GA's voice, big iron box put the person to the third floor. This process really scary, I was in addition to the unknown case sit a firm after the elevator, walking up and down the stairs.

After the previous columns, I basically on African Hostel does not have very high expectations.

Zizo just, we check-in, 100 EGP day, double room with bathroom, a fan, get breakfast. Room conditions Mody, anyway look forward not high nor too big accident bug can, because the floor is very high here, I feel very empty, pushed the two fan has a long history of wood Windows, the following is the courtyard, I deny, because the room walls was painted green, various furniture like Pharaoh's use so far, I was a bit nervous. But we all feel that African Hostel staff are all very good, Zizo is responds to borrow from a lender charger, power converter, ask, ask tour, they were all very enthusiastically.

Once you've settled is local time, nearly eight in the evening, in the country are all night, we decided to go for a walk, and comfort at the hungry-Zang Temple.

And Zizo receives a half-day, determine their direction should be fully understand, and full of confidence.

Cairo city to my first feeling is age-old and even travel.

Main street lofts are not very many layers, but because of the high level, so the feeling is great buildings. These huge buildings have a sense of history, every building is old old, gray, combined with messy street scenery, the Sphinx as one walks a long road weary traveler. Streets of business storefront very interesting, one side of the street are all in the glass wall, because storey advantages, each storefront display are very shocked. Shops are the glass walls of each party space utilization, the entire wall surface, no, it is the whole House of merchandise through this wall display to passers-by. A plastic models, next to a row to a row, I'm curious how shops were removed from the upper part of the goods. In addition to the old townscapes and exaggerated commercial atmosphere, Cairo to our second screen is out of the traffic situation. Walking at a crossroads, as we wait for traffic lights, surprised to find a red light, opposite the car still flying over, while the green light, we can't wait to gap across the road. A busy intersection, the bus can stop at people, no matter how on the back of the car horn, all car and people follow your temper and like to choose how the crossing and time, in spite of the traffic light turn, while the traffic police. Finally, we Malaysians, started in Cairo street just across the road with impunity.

Soon, I have the pleasure of crossing the road back to live in

God, we've gone nearly an hour, but the Zizo and we say 15 minutes to walk to the edge of the Nile, why are we still haven't found the target. Have to admit that we got lost and had to ask for directions. This in turn lets us discover an interesting phenomenon in Cairo for directions, first select a police, but not all the police were able to speak English, after a few days later for directions summary, where a rich experience of the white point of the police, we speak English, fatter more white, English better. If there is no police (which generally is not possible, Cairo Street police station density have domestic cattle so high, for example), you will find those suits people for directions will compare insurance. But in the way, we also experience the enthusiasm of the Cairo community, there are some times when we ask people who didn't know the way, will help us find other people with the Arabic translation, then give us a listen. More on several occasions, it was far away from the street or see our few foreigners in pointing, guess we ask, you've come across the street or run up and show us the way, really moved us. But our time lost because of the lack of experience, did not have to ask the way skill, time, best finally to the Nile.

In the dark, a river full of cross-strait some upscale hotel light reflection.

Nile is the world's greatest rivers, she gave birth to the most ancient history of a country. But at the moment, the Nile River is flowing in the darkness, lost her specific style.

We stand on the bridge for a moment, looked at car cart bike on the bridge across the River, many pedestrians have been in the middle of the road crossing the bridge.

Here the traffic situation and urban streets, out of control. I saw a car with a coach, he kept honking behind the scenes are spectacular.

Dinner is eaten at KFC, we move in a circle, or feel that the international chain of restaurant-quality assured, at least, I know there's something you can point.

Some street side restaurants go in and do not know what the point, and many restaurants are no one speak English.

Back to fear and get lost, and decided to call a taxi.

Take the hotel's business card, to stop a car and was asking price 20 lbs. We also do not understand the situation, on the bus. To the destination, the driver went to 25 lbs. I fire up, and he said no, then gave 22 lb to leave. Go ask the Zizo, is this a bus over 5 pounds is enough, in fact, we are the drivers to hang up, the heat of the fire. Combined with the streets of Cairo, the first day, I'm on Cairo's positioning is three words "dirty! mess! bad!"

Complain to but lethargic, back to the room right after they sleep.

Wake up is on the third day, feel is not clearing the sleep. Bug to find the hotel staff to breakfast on the third floor of a similar to the Office the same place for dinner. Of course, the breakfast is also the Arab style, a cup of black tea flavor quite strange, a strip of hard bread, two jam, an egg. I eat the eggs, other tasted a mouth ain't touching.

Today's destination is the Nile in Egypt Museum.

With the pioneering experience last night, and prohibited the taxi, we decided to walk to the Museum. Walk for about half an hour, to the destination. The road we met a pandering of Egypt, very enthusiastic asked us where to go, to give us lead the way. We started chatting with him, and later found his enthusiasm over the head, took us into a shop to sell shop owner himself away, we determined that don't buy things, the shopkeeper will reach out to us to be present. There is no choice but to give a more essential balm（20G） escape. Out the door, the dreadfulness of the pimps was still going to pull our next home, abominable, given a cold face to leave.

Egypt Museum is a red building, is surrounded by an iron fence.

The gate of the road dust, from time to time there are large coaches took various colour tours. On the third step one post five step a whistle, the number of the police and not less than the visitors also. Into the Museum through a myriad of security procedures that are depositary, the camera cannot take water. Upon completion of this number, ticket, ticket price is 60/person, does not contain the Mummy Exhibition Hall. The ticket is a security clearance, but seems to be useless, there's staff did not go.

Into the Museum, blowing a crowded history heritage makes people for dinner.

Museum of above-ground part of a two-layer, a layer in accordance with the historical period clockwise arrangement at every stage of building or statue, second floor, mainly because some grave goods and mummies. On the first floor into a circle, for our two layman simply confuse the early dynastic period and ancient kingdoms period of architectural characteristics differ. A variety of large and small statues, portrait, animals like, or half animal, half man, we're just traveling round clocking. The second floor is overwhelming, we walk through the "coffins", really is a coffin, and the human form, a master looks outside art, some large sets of small. Walked, I was a bit upset stomach, not knowing that it was the morning of poor black tea or coffin seen a lot of reasons. And then suddenly saw two Mummy, a black, the other a package with the shroud, together with the coffin on the transparent closet. This time the bug said a sentence I had collapsed around me, he said "where's the beef jerky taste?" Oh my God!!!

Escape from this area, in a relatively open some place to sit a while back my stomach churning of nausea.

Go look at famous sakaltutan scammon showroom, where Egypt signs displayed---sakaltutan scammon 11 kg of gold mask. This Hall, I went back and forth three times, the Golden Mask really shake me to keep my eyes open, although in a book or other places have seen many times, but see this astonishing artifacts or very exciting. Sakaltutan scammon's mummy is not displayed in the Museum, which is stored in Luxor's Valley of the King, his mausoleum. Sakaltutan scammon in Egypt's history should only be very common a Pharaoh, who just 9 years, no special performance. But in 3000 years later, he is Egypt's most famous methodOld, just because his mausoleum in the long history of not suffer ' ghoul or flood damage, is the complete rendering. People saw the amazing Golden mask, guess the truth about the death of Pharaoh, and, after 30 years, sakaltutan scammon for Egypt's value embodied.

The Museum also a famous Hall is the Royal mummies Hall, require additional fees, 100 yuan/person, here display BC 1650-945 years before some famous Pharaohs and Queens, say Rameses II.

But as I fear of mummies, this exhibition hall I haven't even the door stay a while away.

Remaining large showroom also many, we are just yet.

If you are interested in history, before it would be good to have reference book-control to see, here is the note very stingy exhibits, most famous exhibits is not detailed source of information, and we just kind to the rear is a shenmeipilao.

Leaving the Museum we go for a long time to find a place to solve the lunch.

I decided to return to the hotel bed bugs are going to find a place for the international student ID card. Because when the domestic busy forgot this registration, here after I found greatly LOB. International student ID card at the price of a domestic transaction is $ 85, all attractions here are the 5 fold. So split, I feel our walk back to the hotel, right after continue to sleep.

Bug reactive, Cairo Center according to the first two criteria for international student ID card, a passport is under age generally determine whether students, a school of proof, we have two conditions on board, was rejected.

We decided to go in search of food, for two days to starve, I must eat good.

In the lonely planet after decided to go on a query one called Emara Hati al-Gish of barbecue. Holding the map asked N more people, and finally found this restaurant. Although the food was not as good, but at least the environment here is good, but also provides a menu in English, and polite waiter. We pay the 96 EGP, with 24% of tax. In Egypt's upscale restaurant, dinner will be additional tax, of course, there are additional tips.

Content back to the hotel to sleep right after, in the middle of the night was a knock at the door, I wake up in the wake of the pitiful reaction is "finished, terrorists come."

Quiver to ask "Who ' s there?" The result is "fly, heard me, sister!".

Huang Jie is before I found on the website of aramu when contact information, on their family from Denmark, but also in similar time arrived in Egypt, so if you could encounter was about to travel together.

We at the hotel told us Huang Jie Zizo has come over, but don't know where to go, that she came in the middle of the night at her door. Huang Jie also brought a young man, called Ning a come from Germany. Ning a with a partner, call people, come from the United Kingdom. In alien to meet so many people are really excited to hear so many days of Arab twittering and understand can't understand English to everyone speak Chinese is fun. So hurry-discuss second-day itineraries, decided that the next few days we all together.

The next morning, our team goes to the railway station, take the train to Alexandria.

Ning is the expert, ask-the-art skills and a sense of direction, he quickly and locals goujiandabei always fraternizing were both awarded the information you need. We got to the train station, bought 10 points to Alexander train ticket and 7 p.m. a return ticket. But wait until 12 o'clock, and finally see our train 姗姗, in Egypt, if throughout the train it's surprising things, they are accustomed to the local people totally, little people to information when the train, only we leapt down on there. Cairo railway station reconstruction of scenes were dirty, not waiting room, we all wait for next in Rails, many people in the tracks on this, see not far from the train station, opposite the station of people rushing to jump off the tracks, climbing to the opposite to that platform staff also got used to really let me open horizons.

The Alexander is 2 hours by car, train compartments, very cold, and everyone is frozen yellow fade, only five years old kid sister's Kai remains vibrant and badgering bug to PDA play games.

The second dream Alexander

Alexander stands in the Eastern Mediterranean, to its creators, named after Alexander the great.

This used to be the world's most prosperous city, Alexandria Library used to be the world's largest collection of books, after Egypt gaudily, Lou Batra once hoot situation, but all the historical annihilation, Alexandria Library is Caesar a fire burned, Lou Batra era bustling city was destroyed in the earthquake. Modern Alexandria City is built on the ruins, also very young, visually without too many historic cities. But for us it rush of travellers, the Eastern Mediterranean of the pure and Alexander public enthusiasm is sufficient to allow us to this great city. I always regret not lived in Alexandria one night, the city is my entire trip was most reluctant to Egypt.

We arrived at the Alexander is the afternoon two, while the return ticket is about seven, so we decided to just go to a tour of the Alexandria Library and Kate Blair Castle.

We played two taxis to libraries, since before the slaughter of painful and share taxi experience, we directly on a piece of paper to write how 5Le, regardless of the driver asking price we claimed 5 pounds, and finally have two cars took us to. Of course, have the driver to destination deal also and we want more money, but we all loose drop, many forces big Ah ha ha.

Now the Alexandria Library is built again in 2002, the entire building reminding

As a huge ground tilt discus, like embedded Eastern Mediterranean sun, rising up from the introduction that it can hide 800 000 books in space. The library is open, tickets 20, package can't take in, you can free hosting. Evil we have done a bad thing, I put my and bug ID to Ning a buy a ticket, he and the people there are international student ID card, even to the half-price tickets for students. The conductor at the Chinese gave trance, appears to lead next to a person of a moment, the half-price ticket sold us out!

Inside the very modern library, I went in to see the Interior of the first-time is just scare.

Because in Egypt's capital city of Cairo and famous Egypt Museum, I am impressed throughout Egypt are stuck in old and outdated, but see the Alexandria Library, it is the style of the 21st century. The door to security inspection, attendant dress, courteously, quick release of tickets and completely unlike those traveling Cairo police of undisciplined. Into the internal structure of the entire library of courtyards, the top is translucent glass, the light is very good. Plank floor coot in neat shelf next to a row of free use of the computer. Many local people in to read or learning, see age to college students, and are very quiet. I have to assume there's our domestic majority city library is the absence of such facilities and atmosphere, here is so stunning.

We are no one understand Arabic, so in the library stayed too long no significance, we visited a circle, came out.

Library of a building next to the second floor is a large glass wall, the Hilton Cafe, you can see the Eastern Mediterranean. We went to sit, child and a min Simon ate Curry with chicken, I want a cup of cappuccino, as long as 5 EGP, Super bargain.

To save time, we play to Kate Bay Castle.

The car along the Eastern Mediterranean coast, beautiful scenery along the way, if it were not in a hurry, we really should be in the coastline to enjoy the sea breeze and slowly walking sea view.

Kate Bay extends the Castle located on a peninsula on the cusp of the sea, in 1480, built on the famous Lighthouse ruins by Ross, Ross Lighthouse is a ancient method of the seven wonders of about 283 for completion in BC, ambitious, shape the unique structure, experienced a 17 th century by storm and tides, the collapse in 1303.

A century later, Egypt last grasp the real power of the Mamluk ruler Sultan Kate Bay in the lighthouse site, use of raw materials, the lighthouse built Kate Bay Castle. The Castle's appearance is very beautiful, in against the blue sky and white clouds, sparkle shining glory. The castle can be visited inside, just o'clock is closed. We are next to the Castle, bathed Eastern Mediterranean sunshine and the sea breeze, feel very comfortable.

See the next time, we decided to walk along the coastline of the railway station direction.

This way as it is in the car to the imagination of the same, very beautiful. Sunset light soft splashing on the beach, nearby parking at the colorful fishing boats. Great fishing in the sea, the children roll around on the beach, with burst into the sea water. See our time, a lot of adults and children are all come with us to shake hands, two of the mother to her baby picked up to me to say hello. This all makes me feel very warm, I always stop, but for small insects hurried, I really want and those children playing in the sea.

Eyes always met, belly but this protest, we didn't do a day to eat.

Search foraging locations, we accidentally discovered a "lonely planet" was known as the best restaurant in the city of Alexandria's fish restaurant---Fish Market. When we lie to is located on the third floor of the restaurant, we know why it would be so regarded. Through the entire surface of the glass wall, we see the Eastern Mediterranean to us to show the beauty of the bumper. A patch of Royal Blue, a few sporadic dotted with fishing, the Sun gently caresses a sea level, serene. In such a beautiful scenery of dinner, I believe that all people are drunk. Lauren waiter led us sit down beside the sea, it flashes and send salad and a variety of sauces. I've been to a row of marine fish, points to a variety of fish. This is absolutely the most after I came to Egypt and enjoy a dinner, invincible sea seafood, chewing, drinking the aromatic mango juice. The only regret is that we have enough time, you must bring this to catch the train. I suggest you change the itinerary, in Alexandria, unfortunately, one night not being adopted. So, hurry package for billing.

When we arrived at the train station was in haste, or five minutes late.

And amazingly, always not punctual train this time was on time departure. I took the train to ask a police station, he doesn't understand English, but after watching a train ticket to a "miss" tone, but he was very enthusiastic take me to the ticket office, found a conductor in a moment, let him my ticket. But do not know why, the conductor man stealthily put vote gave him, and then, I'm curiously was taken to the duty, the duty of a staff wrote a note, I continue to look for the man. And then, I was in Office and ticketing, back and forth between the Office and I do not know the meaning of the dialogue between them, but that is a party to help me train departure votes and is responsible for train departure of Grandpa I read, I would like to support my party at every step until the later came a bit seems to be the leader in blade had a chapter on the cover, and personally to the ticket office, I'm from man's hand got a handwritten note. I kept with each person said "Thank you very much," took the ticket to go straight to the platform, a member of staff means a were about to start the car let us go, we're so curiously left Alexandria. Thank God, asking several passengers, we confirm that the car was sent to Cairo.

Back to the yellow Hostel, African

Sister with them around the other found a place to live, because there are too many mosquitoes, poor min Simon bitten. We have paid a three-day room rates, so I decided to stay here for one night. About the second day of the time, we had their rest.

The third essay shook the desert line

May 25, in the morning, our luggage in the Hostel's downstairs to meet African.

Our next two days is black and white desert.

The Sahara desert stretches from North Africa, the desert-desert--Western desert in Egypt was some big OASIS distribution.

We plan to take the bus to the bahariya OASIS, and then go over there package buggy magic black and white desert.

Go to the bahariya by shuttle bus from Cairo Gateway, we seem to be too early, ticketing window is not open.

We wait for a while, get tickets at seven, not many people on the bus, half-way stop at JISA station and some people on the bus. Bahariya 365 km from Cairo, all the way through the desolate desert, the traffic is fairly good, but also require 6 hours of travel time.

We start by aramu website Zhenyu linked bahariya beauty of Korea girl Li, she and her husband operators a Egypt small family travel agency.

Beauty at home prepare food guests, the men who drove cross-country to lead guests to the desert and camping. After our stop, found with brand of host, he came home with us. Beauty at the door to greet us, her family was the second floor of small building blocks, and the neighbor's House, it seems there are no special features. But into the gate, we found the Lady of the House, creating a very warm and comfortable. Near the gate of a large room with living room, next to be two sides of the wall a long sofa, along the middle of the coffee table mat with a ring carpet, very comfortable. Opposite is a toilet room, clean and tidy. The innermost room is next to the kitchen, dining room, is the low long table, we sat on the ground, waiting for the hostess to entertain us. Soon, sour pickled cucumber, shredded tomatoes, fried Po melon, scrambled eggs, then each person a Curry Chicken with rice, chopsticks! this Oriental meals let us excited, although the Korean and Chinese have some differences, but would be very similar. Ate so many days in addition to the salty taste will have no other Arab cuisine, King of the United States to prepare the meal for our appetite, stomach discomfort seldom eat min Simon father also had two Curry with chicken. Beauty is estimated at many Asian people in her home for dinner, so I prepared a lot of rice, we each stuffed.

Water foot rice stuffed, we sat on the living room waiting to start.

King and her husband put our passport to the police station, it is said that there were registered to the desert at the police station, registration is required. The living room has three Chinese people, a husband and wife and sister, just one day before they went to the desert, now wait for the train back to Cairo. These three compatriots are cow, we look at their passport, it is all over the world.

We point out the beauty House, by Messrs two cruisers set out to the desert.

Driver-guide who was King and her husband, another funny guy might be his brother, and a peer of the uncle, King-us tell us is the singer and cook.

Go to black and white desert road are tar road, car, so we get a general feel, flying over an hour just to black desert.

Black desert as its name implies, is a large grilled desert.

Sahara desert for this segment do not know what the whole burnt by fire, far and near many volcano-shaped Black Hill. We got out of the car, on a small hill. Peak seen more clearly, far and near a churning black waves, barren, desolate exception.

Back to the bus, min Simon has awaked, heard we climb did not wake up, he was angry with his mother at sixes and Sevens, occasionally and his mother quarrel with Denmark language, is very interesting.

Fortunately quickly into another interesting places, let him forget Hei, Crystal Mountain. Crystal Mountain, is a massive quartz stone, not far from the road, next to the driver to take us to the foot, pointed at the next shiny Hill told us that the "Diamond".

We really like to see the diamond General surprise.

In a piece of yellow sand, sat a shiny Hill, yellow sand Hill in scattered to tumble down crystals. We shouted to pick up the Crystal look, and who better than a beautiful found. King and her husband do not know where to turn into a watermelon, gave each of us. Desert, precious stones, watermelon, HA HA, it is a perfect combination.

Eating Watermelon, we Chingmei husband's request, the majority found the quartz crystals are back with a few small pieces of back to the bus, move on.

When the wizard again and let us get off, he gave us a smooth wooden planks.

In a Crescent of sand dunes, next to the row for the first time I saw sand sliding, and found it to be an interesting exercise. My guts is smaller and watched the very steep dunes slope, not afraid to slip, then look at the five-year-old min Simon are playing puffing, decided to try. Sitting in the back of an insect, two personal glide and speed is slow, feeling very good. When the bottom from the dune climb, we all are thin sand.

Sunset, we advance the white desert region.

First see the white desert, I just cannot believe my eyes. Can you imagine, yellow sand accumulating the styling of the snowman? I until off, personally touched those "Snowman" to believe the snowman is solid rock, just, Sahara desert wind these white chalk rock as a chicken, ostrich, camel, horse, Eagle, snake. ..... Because the sunset, the red light is projected onto these strange animals, the spectacular can't find words to describe.

The wizard who led us

To begin camping, tent. Two cars side by side, as two parked wall, to resist the wind at night, the Sahara and three sides surrounded by tarpaulins, carpet and pad, is our bed at night. Then, Cook began to prepare food that day have quickly black.

Night time, we also found beside much activity.

Min Simon quickly cried: Fox! we saw a pair of Desert Fox, the little figure about running in a flexible manner, in a variety of shadow under the cover of near to us. We have quickly discovered the Fox's goal is to tents in front of a bucket of water, they seemed to be already familiar to mankind, and not afraid of us, in our gaze slowly close to the bucket, vertical up to drink the water. But buckets opening is too small, the King and her husband took a Cup, a cup of water out on the edge of the bucket. Was just scared to go Fox will be right back, bluntly, in full view, quickly put a glass of water.

Chef greets us dinner's ready, we went to the tent and sat around the long table.

Roast chicken, boiled potatoes, tomato-cucumber salad, rice, fenda, plum fruit after cooking, although there was no King-us do good to eat, the camping in the desert is also very good for dinner.

After dinner, the chef has to singer Uncle make up, he side-side, next to two of the wizard, the song of the drum and drum desolate in the desert to listen to a special taste.

We dance around the fire, the wonderful desert night.

Comparison of cold desert nights, we put thick clothes to wear, one will feel cold.

Cook dinner table pulled a sleeping bag, a blanket, we went into the tent. Tent is not top of the desert only wind, no dew. We lay into sleeping bags, carry his head to see the stars. Bug said he saw five star, but forgot to wish. Lying in the desert, sleep under the stars, this scene I think many years later I will never forget.

While the cover is very thick, the morning still felt a little cold.

People obviously had a cold, I also feel that the nose some uncomfortable. The sun rises, yet in the desert, a quiet, where the wind blows out the folds of the sand. Tents around is dense Fox paw marks, don't know how many Fox last night we visited.

East of sky slowly to red, there are some fantastic scenery of the dawn.

Slowly, the Sun is out. We face is printed on the brilliance of the Sun, the red light. The white desert is a glowing red, snow will once again become red snowman.

We bathe in the Sun for breakfast under.

The chef prepares the tea, pie, crisps and some cake. I drank a cup of black tea and eat some potato chips, the strange cake and pastry, I declined.

Breakfast, Sun is already high, white desert back to white State.

We stroll in the nearby, ready to return.

Along the way, we see more of the "Snowman" styling.

In a chicken mushroom stones, we stop to appreciate. Upwind, suddenly wanted to sing, sing a song of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, next to France after a group of people do not know are not infected by my songs, aggro gave me a big hug HA.

Passing a spa, a ditch, babbling to steaming, we put your feet up, hot grin off your face.

Back to King-us home, she has prepared lunch.

Today had mixed surface remains eat our stomach liuyuan.

A little rest, we'll be ready to go.

Paid to the King of the two days, by car, a car 1000 EGP, eat and live are considered inside. We are six people, each person 330 EGP, the cost for our two-day feel, really cheap.

The return trip we did not wait for the bus, but the package a small van, 450 El pounds, six people, and take bus prices almost.

It makes us mad, open to a rest stop along the way, the driver continues for a long time, we went to press, he said: do you want to drink black tea and pray, let us again, and so on, this one is more than an hour.

We get off and go Metro and the admission to the city of Cairo.

On a platform of signs on the fuzzy, asked a lot of people, we find a way. Cairo subway it is interesting to have a dedicated to women and children travelling in cars, compared to the men next to cars, the cars have more seats, it's not so crowded.

To our destination, we moved to Huang Jie they live in the hotel, Gloria Hotel.

The hotel is new, many African Hostel, there are many rooms have air conditioning, sanitation feeling a lot better. Because there is only one air-conditioned rooms, gave a Huang Jie, our room only fan, but according to our Hostel in the African experience, here live at night or cool, suffice with electric fans, the room price is 100.

Since many people naturally want to find a dinner for a good place.

Lonely planet still play function, found a company called FELFELA restaurant in corruption, environment is quite good, smell, in accordance with the Chinese taste is not up to much.

A small bug and Ning to find help for Zizo a tomorrow to pyramid car 200 El pounds a day, and then took us to a house next to drink fruit juice fruit juice store.

In Cairo, juice store is full of street, shops are exaggeration to hang all kinds of fruit, fruit juices are also very cheap. We from that day on almost every point this shop to drink fruit juice, I will drink a glass of Orange mango, a Cup, a cup of sugar cane. The most expensive, mango EGP 3, Orange 2.5 EGP, sugarcane 2 El pounds. The juice is really good to drink, and later experienced by with the empty bottles, the premises after the packaging had a few drinks down the bottle away. Juice shopkeeper is a fat middle-aged, humorous, the uncle of the counter is also very enthusiastic, if the boss, the boss's son, a 13-year-old boy will be responsible for collecting money. They see we are all very happy, especially the little boy, but he does not speak English, we can only make.

All get after a break, these days feel very tired, next to the bed you want to sleep, a good rest, tomorrow to go to the pyramid.

The fourth story pyramid horizons

The large number of Egypt pyramid, has found the number of 90 000, with the majority spread across the Southwest outskirts of Cairo.

Pharaoh in the Nile has created a brilliant civilization, after his death, their successors as they built the pyramids, as their tombs. The pyramidal structure, after thousands of years of wind and rain, some collapse, some still stands in the yellow sand, called the wonders of the world worship.

We at eight o'clock in the morning, take a rented car, first going to light up red pyramid.

Red Pyramid is located at Dahshur (DAHSHUR), about 30 km distance from Cairo. Here is the fourth dynasty of Egypt safro (hufu's father) in the bottom is the side length of the mausoleum, 220 metres square, 104 meters high, because the material is light red limestone, so called Red Pyramid (to tell the truth, in my eyes, it and the surrounding yellow sand color not too much difference). Red pyramid in Egypt's history, the location is very important because it is the first real sense of the pyramids, it was not until I am familiar with the pyramid of pyramids.

In one third of the height of the Red Pyramid, there is a gap, that is to enter the pyramid of the entrance, front inside the building of a corridor.

We bought tickets below, climbed up breath, to the entrance of a don't look than the pyramid of young grandfather produced tickets. He said a few words, I understand that it is "Welcome to Dahshur," and then let us in on the side.

We follow a 45-degree slope down, the height of only 1 meters tunnel road, the road straight and steep, we bent knees go anguished.

Inside, go soon, before it was dark. This time I think of what that grandfather, could that be let us give a tip to the lights? because I see some wires and fluxes in next to it. Don't know how long, in short, leaving everyone to leg cramps, and eventually to the end, we're only a flashlight light, discovery to a larger space. However, the oncoming pungent smell of sulphur, and hand out endless dark electro-optic we exception. Child and min Simon dad the two big men immediately decided to retreat, leaving we continue to explore the Tomb.

We adapt to the darkness, just found it a square stone room, not big but very high walls are smooth stone, don't know what goes here.

There is a square in the corner of the channel, as you can to be bent, crossed the channel to another stone room, wall frame with wooden ladder. We walked along the wooden stairs and broke two curved top to third stone room, at this time, our clothes are sweat. We found himself standing in a large vacant wood, wood fence around, look at the following are some scattered rocks, no top, above the high stone wall on both sides of the tilt up to the top, the shape is an inverted V-Word.

In the absence of prior to the pyramid, we are curious and eager to see the magic inside the pyramid, we realized the dream of standing pyramids Centre pitiful we pray to be able to get out of here.

Absolute darkness, absolute silence, absolutely desperate atmosphere, the feeling that I don't want to experience a time.

When we are downstairs, drill a hole to climb out of the tunnel, the dazzling inside the pyramid of the Sun is really a very cordial, back to the room feels good.

Red Pyramid not far away, is bent pyramid.

Bent pyramid of special in that it nearly half of the building, the architects find if you follow the original 54 degrees inclination to continue construction of the tower is about to collapse, so temporary decided to dip into the 43.5 degrees, which built a unique bent pyramid. However, after the completion of the Pharaoh is not satisfied, then in the neighborhood built red pyramid.

We continue the trip to the pyramid of Sakalava of ladder.

This pyramid is unique because of its shape is built on six levels. However this pyramid was exposing more evident traces of it at the bottom of the ladder has damaged seriously, look in the near future it will affect the overall structure. But local authorities are maintenance, they put up scaffolding to the bottom of the pyramid, the nearby piled stones fill in. But seeing those lazy workers, do not know this project when completed. Stepped pyramid surrounded by large buildings that are similar to the temple and the sacrifices of the building, as well as some of the tombs of the nobles and craftsmen. These buildings are being buried by the sand, archaeologists have discovered after cleaning out part of the site or you can also see the workers doing the digging and cleaning up even further.

Finally made its way to the famous Giza group, where huge Khufu and Sphinx is known all over the world.

In addition to hufu, Giza Group also includes Hough, pyramid and door card UL pyramid.

Khufu also known as the great pyramid, is the largest pyramid in Egypt, 4600 years ago, it took approximately 230 million stone, each weigh approximately 2.5 tons.

Built at the height is 146 m, after dozens of century, height reduced 9 meters, but when I look at it before, or is it big and shock.

And the Red Pyramid, Khufu is you can buy a ticket to enter the internal, 100 EGP trips, but limited to 300 pieces a day ticket.

However, in view of the Red Pyramid within the terrible experience, we have no interest in further in.

We have three pyramids walk in a circle next to it, to avoid the constant harassment of along the small traders

To the Sphinx.

First see Sphinx, and don't see Khufu's that feeling, because it's smaller than imagined.

Sphinx name is Sphinx, the legendary King of terror, we have too many books and movies have seen it in, so the heart on it are already familiar with. This familiar faces you see real when it was broken, because in their minds, its image is big, powerful, mysterious, rather like a stone in front of the seat, without any anger, quiet prone. It's a very serious damage to the face, nose is said to be at the time of Napoleon's conquest of Egypt was blasted away, beard are lost, is the 19th century adventurer taking current in the British Museum, and the rise in groundwater and environmental pollution are daily against it.

People at this time and we bid farewell to the day, he decided to fly the Red ticket, going to the Red Sea Diving.

This was only in the Nile Hilton Hotel than a week to United Kingdom, following us here, completely reversing the depressing impression on Egypt. I wish him all the way to success.

We continue on Sphinx side around, finding the right camera angle.

In a temple door, should see a foreigner Cutie wearing bikinis did all kinds of shapes, in Egypt that folkway conservative Arab States, in public wearing such a garment is very inappropriate. No wonder Egypt men always harassment of foreign women, because their experience let them think that foreign women are very open and accessible.

Ning a to stay pending sunsets when pyramid, we boarded the minibus 5 people back to the Hotel Gloria.

After a short rest, min Simon dad manual, left to rest for 4 people, we set out to Hahn Khalili.

Hahn Khalili is a big market, from many areas, here is targeted specifically at tourists merchandise sales, local residents like to buy various commodities.

We are in the market around a circle, a little Egypt businessmen to do business in a way, the active recruitment of enthusiasm, sky offer is their their characteristics. But Ms., they faced in and your bargaining at the same time, constant praise "you're beautiful, that have your man really lucky, you smile too fascinating!", cold hair straight shaft.

Go to eight, we went away to the next destination, Gu Li Gong.

Every Wednesday and Saturday, Gu Li Palace has free Sufi dance, this is rather a found that he had seen four days ago, it is strongly recommended to us. Just venues near the Khalili, we decided to go and watch. But because there is no accurate address, so we ask for had twists, asked n people are not getting the correct direction, the occasion being crazy, even met to black and white desert time in Korea MM family met the sisters, they gave us a piece of writing Arabic in addresses, we had a question, it is easy to find place.

Gu Li Gong is looked very small with a sense of history, stage, following neat placed at dozens of chairs.

When we arrived. Most of the chairs are full, we found a location on the corner in front of the seat. At eight thirty, Sufi dance begin on time. First name though is the dance, but there is also a musical performances, and male solo performances. I do not know the song and dance in the background and significance of the show, but on the scene, is very shocking. Instruments, mainly the drum, that kind of simple but full of strength, so passionately. Dancing is also very simple, most of the time that is spinning around, but go up ring to it so much, go again waving props or skirt, should go for half an hour, I head Halo that dancers are also no Halo. Sing more simple, and they did pray Horn sound transmission in almost, very simple. I look down and always feel that they are in some religious ceremony performers that kind of religious expression, and the singer the desolation sound, inelegant, but exciting. I sat next to one of his old France several times with a silent shout, applauded when simply spell out life force.

This day also'm beat, even has a very active min Simon are kept and his mother said so tired.

Min Simon is too much, and 5-year-old kid, and we like rest and action, we all too much, he still stick to it.

Back to Hotel Gloria, quickly wash, lie down and sleep.

The fifth article in Aswan color

May 28, the morning was we missed in his sleep, woke up at noon already is.

Huang Jie family already in the early morning flight back to Denmark, the cute min Simon, hope you can see here. Today's schedule is easy, just feel free to look around Cairo city, a few days to catch too tired of going to rest up in the second day Aswan.

I had frozen cold desert, this reaction is particularly powerful, nose completely impassable, also non-stop sneezing.

I lie not to think of it, the bug can only one person to buy tickets. Bug in exploring roads in the process, again seen all the enthusiasm of the people of Cairo, a Briefcase men to help with his side ask roadside looking air ticket office until you locate the destination. Ticket is Egypt air, 407 El pounds a piece, the provisional purchase really expensive.

Are bug drag up after consulting the foreground boy what local cold medicine.

The little boy English not good, so I ZIZO tame demonstrates headache and sneezing symptoms after he realized that he took the name of the drug in Arabic written on paper to us. Cairo street pharmacy is a lot, we go out littleway found one, buy the drug immediately carried out swallowed a star.

A taxi to Saladin (CITADEL), this is a bug has been kept in place.

We are on the first day from the airport to the city on the way to see this magnificent building, the large white ball cap is an insect called vanishing cream. We continue to use the cityPeople bought posing as a student ID card and even, in a group of Dutch guns of soldiers followed, entering the vanishing cream Castle.

Saladin was a ruler of Egypt, Saladin 1176, began the construction of the Castle, thereby strengthening the city's defense against the Crusader, in hundreds of years later, Expatica Ali destroyed Castle, in accordance with their intentions with Castle construction.

The rulers of the residence was moved to Abdeen Palace, this building became a military stronghold, so that we in it you can see the military museum, the square has a variety of weapons, and some areas at present is not open to visitors.

We visited the great vanishing cream on top of the Expatica Ali mosque, which is a style of architecture, Turkey internal space is very large, from floor to top of height some amazing, intermediate vertical hanging chandelier, the ground is red carpet.

We were asked to take off my shoes.

In the Arab States, to enter the mosque, be sure to take your shoes off. Probably because the roof is high, the Interior is very cool, we found a corner sat, soon feel sleepy. I found myself just lying asleep, the bug is also deeply underground a head. May sleep for 10 minutes, or not to, I was woken up, I was so indicate that it is not able to lie down to sleep. But I'm too sleepy, I close to the stone wall, let the bug sat I front stand, continue to sleep, wake up again, this time because their prayer time came, we were collective clean out. I'm out the door in the aftertaste that stolen dreams, there was a sacred place to sleep, sleep too cool. I think the next time you have friends to Cairo, I would definitely recommend him here to steal some sleep.

Outside there is a viewing platform, you can see the entire city of Cairo.

There are guards there stood close to not let the locals, but also warm and inviting us to take photos, obviously to tip. I am interested, Cairo city looks very shabby grey, bug went to take a picture, give them two essential balm（20G）.

Once again go up by Hahn Khalili market, bought some large scarf.

Really, I had a really great scarf. The shopkeeper is a handsome guy, English is very good, it is said that previously there was a good friend is Chinese.

We should return to a car with sat meter taxi, it's surprising and exciting.

Egypt most taxi is a black, very worn, no meter, you almost can't send expect to drivers of conscience, only on your own feelings and offer the ability to determine the price. While the Government of Egypt, in order to raise the ceiling decided to begin to introduce some white and yellow taxi has air conditioning and meter, initial costs slightly more expensive (normal black taxi starting fee is 3 EGP 2 km, and white taxi is 4.5 EGP 2 km), but absolutely normal, the driver was wearing more orthodox. Before we get on the train across the glass and ask the driver how much money, the driver is not know how to answer, leapt out a narration enthusiastic people, tell us that there is a meter of the car. We have the feeling in the lottery, but pay money or Ries scraped by meter pay drivers, in case he does not change.

Back to the hotel, in the top floor of the café to a cup of water, on the next trip.

See on the Raiders from Aswan to Luxor by cruise line, according to leave a phone number, contact the cruise agent Montasser, booking a pick-up service and two days of the cruise itinerary. Additionally booked hotel Aswan by HATHOR, reiterates its request to the front desk help us arrange a car to the airport tomorrow, after all, the US and make us to sleep.

No. 29, the Sun is shining.

Wash up to the front of the check-out, after the reception of the little boy has helped us arrange a car to go to airport, 60 EGP. Cairo airport, 20 km from the urban areas, the road trip is more than a half an hour away, but the Cairo airport internal confusion signs let us spend nearly half an hour looking for a building. Almost most of the drivers can't figure out which airlines which terminal, including airport staff, we ask at least 10 individuals to confirm the direction, and finally just managed to find a place, but also a good time to stay more comfortable.

Cairo to Aswan flying time is one hour and a half.

In fact, if we compare the lazy, the previous day by the night train from Cairo to Aswan, and train the most expensive SLEEPING TRAIN fare is 60 dollars, usually sit ticket prices at around 250 El pounds, and you can save the cost of overnight. No way, lazy cost is more expensive.

Aircraft to Aswan over time, we look at it from the air, in a large yellow sand, dotted with blue lakes, it is because the Aswan Dam was built after the formation of the world's largest artificial lake – Lake Nasser.

Aswan is an important city in southern Egypt, Egypt in ancient times an important military and economic status. Nowadays the population of 118 million, is a very famous tourist cities.

When we stepped off the plane, and immediately feel the heat blowing, compared to Cairo, where the temperature is significantly higher.

In summer, the temperature in Aswan 38-45 degrees Celsius, we also did well in the heat of the here, the temperatures of 36 degrees barely acceptable.

Mr Vos Montasser waiting outside the airport, we make our connected to the car after a very fast speed to we introduced the Aswan travel arrangements.

Afternoon go bafile Island (PHILAE) of iciz Temple, and then take a three-masted sailing the Nile, small boating following morning to go to the Temple of Abu Simba, afternoon ride cruise starts two-day trip to the Nile corruption, on the fourth day at noon at the Luxor, the fifth day private tour of the West Bank of Luxor. We started just find him for cruise, who would have thought that he put us behind the journey plan okay, we listen to dumb, since we also let it be, that with his arrangements.

Mr. Montasser we sent to the

Scheduled HATHOR Hotel door, and so we check-in later we visited will take cruise Princess, cruise, we pay the cost of two individual 280 u.s. dollars. Cruise is 50 US dollars a night, the remaining 80 dollars for other travel costs, the price compared to their own arrangements, may be slightly more expensive, however, have we stop worrying about a station, but also a lot of trouble.

Aswan is a beautiful city, Cairo, here is very clean, close to the Nile, the car is relatively orderly.

We stand at the top of HATHOR hotel, across the street is the Nile River, the landscape is very good. The only problem is a little hot and the Sun who keep my eyes open eyes. We went downstairs to buy some food and water, in a similar national fast food places, I bought a fried beef and rice, the Pack and go back to eat. As a foreigner, no doubt we are blackmail a sum, a fried beef and rice to 30 El pounds. However many days did not eat rice, although expensive, I still eat extremely satisfied.

Food foot water saturation, Montasser arrangement of the cars arrive Hotel downstairs.

We continue to find already has three Chinese people in the car, that is three Shanghai girl, and the same itinerary and are arranged by Mr. Montasser.

First stop is the bafile Island iciz Temple.

ToFile Island need a boat, in the Blue Nile, bafile island more pure beauty. Iciz is famous in ancient Egypt, the guardian of one of the goddess of life and health, is the wife of Osiris, Ruth's mother. Ancient Egypt people worship the iciz throughout the construction of the temple to worship her. ToFile temple on the island is very good, all saved exquisite murals adorn the walls and pillars. In too warm sunshine, I will go for a walk, hiding in a stone pillar behind the shade coffee. Bug but was in high spirits, take a stroll around the Temple of exceptions. Very unexpected, we met in Cairo the Ning a respectively, we happily talked down after experience respectively.

After leaving the bafile Island, we directly go to the Nile sat three small sailboat mast.

This small boat called a FELUCCA, great white sail, simple hull, and dressed in the traditional Arab robes of Egypt of the boatmen. Canoeing the Nile is really a pleasant thing to hide in the shadows of the white sails, cool slowly, Blue River, the River is within reach deserted yellow sand, distance to local children swim in the River, we put the foot into the River Nile, feel soft and pure, everything is fine.

If you are in the evening, the river rafting and watch the sunset will be more beautiful, in a large solar sail two hours later, we are also a bit spent and ashore.

The fisherman still ask for tips, this bug, Gallant, gave 20 El pounds, while at the same time offer big hug after escape.

Dinner to go to McDonald 's.

In Egypt, McDonald's often occupies a landscape of a line, such as this a McDonald's on the Nile, sitting in bed watching the sunset is very comfortable, restaurant and free WIFI Internet access, small insects like is this, he can even surf the Internet for PDA and domestic news perspective. We have again met Ning a classmate, really interesting.

Early to bed, 30, we had to get up at three points, follow to Abu Simba's fleet.

Abu Simba 280 km, distance from Aswan in Egypt's southern tip, leaving Sudan border only 40 km away. Go to Abu Simba visits usually does not allow the free line, starting from Aswan, at their hotel or other tourist line agent appointments for second-day itineraries, travel arrangements, the police station after police guard at the end of the first and the team, mighty team set off in the morning, two hours after the team returned. Travel line is divided into long-and short-term, long-term contains Abu Simba Temple, incomplete Obelisk, High Dam. We chose a short, direct is to visit the Temple of Abu Simba.

This great mission start waiting for the most trouble, in the dark of the night, we watched the policemen chenzhelian command with the sort of vehicles.

Spent an hour and finally start. I didn't sleep very blur, blurred between heard bug call me to see the Sunrise, or ignored, continue to sleep. About lane 3 hours, we arrived early in the morning the Abu Simba temple gate.

Off the car, I and the worm to run to go to the ticket office.

Car park to the ticket office or a little road, passing a row of tourist shops. This time, our vacation student card cannot be used by a person at the box office, Temple strongly indicated that only accept regular international student ID card. Tickets are 90 EGP, little routong. However, in order to avoid large herds of visitors, we bought tickets to continue to run, and finally arrived in the rest of the people stood before Rameses II before the big temple.

Abu Simba temple built in 3000 years ago, contains Rameses II large temple and Temple Hassall.

Rameses II is the history of ancient Egypt's greatest Pharaoh of ancient Egypt he created a new Kingdom period of prosperity and prosperity. He was energetic, has over 100 children, in a bit more than 60 years, died has 90 years old. His valiant militant, launched for the period of war and times of the great victory. He is a bit crazy, in buildings, construction of temples, palaces, statues and stone tablets. So a bit of magic and Pharaoh, yet his 8 Queen in a fermion Tariq lights, he period charges Tariq warmed Hassall Temple, and place the words inscribed on it: "my love for you is unique, when you come to me, it took my heart." I think Rameses II and China's Emperor Kangxi was quite like, as long as children are numerous, and, like the creation of a country's prosperity, but I was not so serious Emperor Kangxi's architectural fantasy plot.

Although TV and lots of books seen Rameses II to cut a large temple, but actually stood in the temple before or feel very shocked.

Four 20-metre-high Rameses II seated Majesty stand in the doorway, Hall with 8 root huge pillar supporting the top next to the post and the wall carved Farah inThe performance of Valor during the war, the God of Pharaoh, and Exchange. The Temple of the deepest of the temple, dedicated to Hamon, Rameses II, the dark gods Gupta's statue, February 22 and 22 October, the Temple of the Sun through a long Hall, exposures to Rameses II and of God. In this case we did not see, but it's hard to imagine when ancient Egypt people is how to do it, stone and the door very far distance, depth of about 67 m, while the door is very narrow, ancient Egypt people should be able to accurately calculate the point of view, let the Sun in Rameses II birthday and Temple Foundation, the two-day exposure came in, bathed in the statue had up to 20 minutes, it was a miracle. However, the original of this phenomenon are the 21 February and 21 October, in 1963, the construction of the Aswan High Dam in Egypt, in order to avoid the temple was submerged, States assist Egypt will be split into chunks of megalithic temples, move to position after reassembling, sunlight exposure time will be delayed for a day. Modern scientific calculation than 3000 years ago the ancient masterpiece, even there one day.

Hassall Temple is much smaller, Queen fermion Tariq dressed in costume Hassall goddess, and her husband standing at the door of the temple.

Temple to see much, on a cliff carving aesthetic fatigue. We are just in it for a small, came out. For us, the appearance of a shock than inside the statue more attractive.

The temple itself is a bare Hill, it is said that this mountain is artificial, scientists in order to restore the temple and cement pouring out, and the original shape is similar to the mountain.

Next to the mountain is Nasser Lake, we saw several hulking cruises stop on the Lake, from Aswan over night cruise on the Lake, visitors to go ashore to visit in the morning, enjoy vastly.

Stay for about 2 and a half hours, and return.

Back to Aswan, the storage of luggage, it will be followed by Montasser to Princess Cruises. Help us confirm the room occupancy, Montasser before leaving the vessel, let us help before leaving him from China for a cook and travel agents, it is best to speak Arabic, he introduced the business on the Internet because it is very good, reception of mostly Chinese, so I hope that there are two Chinese employees can help him better to develop business. Cruises leave us on lunch, beef rice, there are also complimentary dark plum juice, very good to drink. After lunch we will go back to the room sleep, room more comfortable, but slightly small, other and internal configuration of the four-star hotel.

We slept to sunset, came to the platform at the top of the ship.

Platform has a swimming pool and comfortable chair. The ship had sailed from Aswan, is Blue Nile slowly. Lie down in a Chair, restless, watching the sun slowly sink, enjoy.

From Egypt began as a tourist destination, take a cruise on the Nile travel has been very popular.

Our experience is like on the way to travel. As long as you have enough money, purpose and is not an in-depth journey, select cruises visiting Egypt is the best way. Along the Nile cruise ship, docked along the famous Temple, sufficient time to look around. The rest of the time, in a room to sleep, read a book in the lobby, or at the very top blowing,. Our trip is corruption tour and poor tour middle, two-day cruise to the remaining time or poor tour. From Aswan to Luxor cruise, an intermediate stop in three Temple, a temple called the Luce, the morning after, when we sleep late missed, bug very depressed, because the temple he Ho Ruth games go off, want to see the field and game scene is not the same ~

Meals are all in the ship's restaurant eating, included in the total cost of the inside.

However the ship does not provide free drinking water, all soft drinks and water charges, of course, price is not cheap, but fortunately we have prepared and carried out four bottles of water. We each meal to eat very much, to cover a few hungry stomach. But for the Chinese people, the food here is not good, I do not like bread, so every time I try to eat fruits. No wonder Montasser to find a Chinese cook, indeed, while traveling food influence too much, and if he provides promotional banner is Chinese food, I believe it will attract more Chinese.

The sixth article grilled Luxor

Cruise in Heures to Luxor, in one place on the shore.

We asked the waiter docked points far away from urban areas, they even do not know. So, just next to a taxi, we request to the train station, the driver charge 20 El pounds to go. Discovery Coast dock along a long line of cruise, a lot of boats are three to four in a row, a dock along the shore. We made a mistake or ask dock point of Princess, place names, set off on frivolous, we return the evening brought great trouble, of course, this is way down the line.

About 20 minutes, the Luxor train station, we intend to purchase a second night train ticket to Cairo.

At the ticket office, ticket window is divided into a SLEEPING TRAIN, etc., the second block, foreigners are not allowed to purchase a second seat. Staff efficiency is very low and work with us in a pending such seat team for half a day to nothing. The locals aren't speaking order queued, the more extended our buy time. Finally we turn to, I put the book written by date, destination to the staff, he and I gathered waving. I don't know what to do, take a genius to understand them only on the day of ticket sales, so the second day we also had to run. I was so angry that he die, such provisions should look at label next to it, it's a waste of other people's lives. Because it is the low season, people still-ticketing is not very great, staff is not long I've wasted so much time, if people often encounter this estimation more depressed, eh, did not find clear beforehand, the blame.

From the train station after we make to the people of Luxor

Temple of direction, along a road station walking 10 minutes. Luxor Temple is located on the Nile, looked through the low walls, pillars and walls of deterioration is the Temple of all the content. This temple is one of the building is the old building wild Rameses II, inside one of the most famous items is Obelisk monument. Tablet is a pair, but one seat was sent to Paris, the Concorde, but make the remaining a fame, who saw a pillar of this alone, it reminds me of another in Paris. We round the walls go in a circle, no booking in, because the low walls, we have been able to find out more about the specifics of the intermediate carving or something, I can honestly say that we have aesthetic fatigue.

The Sun was bright, we visited a after the meeting into a line of sight at McDonald 's.

Magical things happen, we again met Ning a classmate, from Aswan this don't all the way back after he arrived in Luxor and see the King and we are the corruption in the boat is also here, eh, where life is not met.

Luxor Temple is surrounded by many horse-drawn carriage in touting, many local people far between Korean and Japanese greeted us when we face is Chinese, they immediately cried with a loud voice, "Hello", a member of the local people are very warm with us a long time, while we went to his house and a cup of coffee, because bad impression in Cairo, I rejected his invitation.

We stroll by the River, sunset, Luxor Temple ruins a soft light. We watched the Nile dressed in robes of locals expertly climbed the FELUCCA sails, sky, very behind xiaguang is beautiful.

Day soon black, we began looking for the way back to the cruise.

At this time, we were a bit muddled because we can't remember the names of ships. Bug start promises that he know the direction, we can walk past, but to go for a day and more black, we rely on the river of the Hilton Hotel at the entrance to completely lose direction. We consult security stop, but I can't put a name and the dirt, the Nile River stretches for several kilometers to hear are the cruise, who knows our ship stopped at what ghosts. At this time that Egypt's warm and luminous, a bit wearing Arab robes of a middle-aged man, dark skin, start smart eyes with us through a crowded villages along the River looking for our Princess. This scenario can be very moving, can also be said that very terrorist, we look at the mysterious man and different people, then we juggle, I'm afraid he sold us do slaves. It was very dark, the stars, a circle in the sky still hanging, mysterious men lead us away from the River to reach for recruited on the road, a car, we get on the train, the man and the drivers have a pass, jiligulu car at night. Finally, the car stops at a junction, we set out to produce security we ship your room key, told us this is the Princess of berths. Thank God, we come back.

This time should have and benefactor said something heartfelt gratitude, and expressed the gratitude.

But the mysterious man ahead of Lion large opening, requires us to pay for the "huge" tips and gifts, finally, the bug with a big hug, a number of essential balm（20G）, ball pen, and 30 El pounds and he otherwise.

June 1, is children's day, but our itinerary is to visit the sleeping for thousands of years of the Pharaoh's Tomb.

CHECK OUT the schedule of guided tours and MONTASSER bus stop waiting for us on shore. We and the fellow's three Shanghai girl, your move into the light car, started the journey to the West Bank of Luxor.

Luxor is located 700 km south of Cairo at the Nile, Egypt cultural monuments is the focus of a tourist destination.

It was built in the ancient city of Thebes by the southern half of the site. Thebes is in ancient Egypt dynasties and new capital, in the era of the dynasty have four thousand years of history. In the eighteenth generation dynasty (BC 1584-1341), Thebes is heyday, city cross-Nile, have "a hundred gates of Thebes" description, unfortunately this great city was destroyed in 88 years BC. Ancient Egypt Empire lasted many years, successive 1500 and Pharaoh King in Thebes built countless temples, palaces and tombs. After thousands of years, the old grand palaces and temples became incomplete ruins, but people still want to see from them was cut, they are highly developed civilization of ancient Egypt. Now the Luxor is the world's largest open-air museum, has a "city of palaces". Nile wear city, it is split in two. Since ancient Egypt people believe that human life, with the sun rises in the East, West and East of the River is the magnificent temples and vibrant neighborhood, river of the West Bank is a Pharaoh, the Queen and the Royal Mausoleum. "Living city" and "dead city" across the River to form the two worlds of the eternal cycle of circle.

Buses in several hotel door stay, took several dial, soon set up a mission.

We came across from the East coast of the West Bank of the Nile River, about half an hour, at a bare King Valley. According to archaeologists estimate that more than 500 throughout the Luxor multiple Tomb, but King wild 64 seats Imperial mausoleum, currently has 17 opening to the outside world.

We went on a guided tour of the exhibition halls of the outside through a sand table is similar to building the demo device see the mausoleum of the distribution of internal features, and then choose to visit the mausoleum. The mausoleum of basically the same, the slope is very steep stairs channel pass-through mausoleum, Tomb room corridor, indoor several catacombs, the mummy of granite sarcophagus docked at last a grave.

We are the King in the Valley of yellow sand, under direction of wood grab individual small tomb into

Look, it seems to be a slug made. I have no interest in the mausoleum, and in-depth tomb of restaurant also makes me feel a bit behind. Although the channel around the frescoes are fine, but I am also interested. Access to a steep ladder to sweat a lot, and the desert sun and Sun-heady, this King Valley in addition to the underground almost even with all its shade. I was the Sun fade quickly hid a rest of import, waiting for someone else.

The second stop is Hart cheppe Sudal Temple, it is a barren desert, the Sun.

But the temple looks very nice, base.more. The temple was built in BC 1400 years ago, is located in the city of Thebes, the northernmost in the Valley of the King and Queen of the Valley. Hart cheppe Sudal was the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt Queen, she first and brother figure-Morse II by marriage, common administrative, figure-Morse II bred soon died, she and young step-figure-Morse III married, fully in control of the throne. She is the period, the trade to national development, greatly strengthened the national strength. However she died, figure-Morse III independent power, start taking people on the Queen's memory (devastation statue, emboss, inscription to get rid of the Queen's image and name, etc.).

Hart cheppe Sudal temple built in a semicircle shaped dorsal trapezium cliffs, rock cliffs, according to skillfully use a broad platform of Cliff stretching out to construct the main building.

The temple is divided into three levels, a huge slope connection layer and Layer II, a great post up every layer. I on the seat and the mountain one building deep admiration, but at the same time, I feel I'm being Sun-smoke.

Hart cheppe Sudal Temple also has a renowned is the 1997 Luxor massacre, at that time, several dressed in robes of the terrorists from the mountains down next to, took from clothes to tourists mad fire rifles, 60 thousand tourists and Egypt were killed, 20 injured.

This tragedy shocked the world, the number of tourists in Egypt, Egypt was once a Government remedy pillar industries, set up as many as 3 million tourist police force, to provide security for visitors free of charge. This is also the territory in Egypt since we all tourist attractions to discover the cause of many police.

After a morning of grilled, we all have no interest in going to Queen Valley, then back to the East Coast.

The road passes through doors agricultural giant like that poor farmers face full door is the Dove.

Back to East Coast, we first luggage in the hotel of Shanghai girl, then go buy a train ticket.

And twists back get the tickets, mung, a crust of paper, a vaguely printed Luxor to Cairo, the other side is written in Arabic. We were looking for English-speaking people ask, they finally know the train number, departure time, train and seat number, the first seat, 165 El pounds.

From the railway station up to see a restaurant at the entrance in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, write a welcome message, and glass doors on big wrote "I love China cheap", as such, we must go to supporters.

Beef stew with rice, potatoes EGP 25 a, the taste was great. Waiting time, the boss is proud to show visitors guestbook, guests almost all Asian people, but also of large household appliances almost all beef stew potatoes with rice.

The afternoon is still the same as the same guide, companion, goals is the temple and the Kanak. Luxor Temple

Kanak Temple is a wonderful building, although as time of baptism, God has fallen, but a person who entered the temple, for its magnificent and shock. Temple of sheep was before human face road, multiple-column Hall huge full of carved stelae, Queen of the obelisk, maze-like lobby, this is a miracle. I'm in the movie "the Nile tragedy" see too many columns Hall, but witnessed when found that pillars 134 root circle has many magnificent. It should be said that the whole Egypt tour in the historical building, the pyramids and the Kanak Temple I was most impressed with.

Luxor Temple we haven't entered, changed it to go to McDonald's summer.

Bug out PDA wireless Internet access, I began to write postcards devoted. Wait until sunset, we came to the Nile, this 1 beautiful sunset.

To train station, the time it is still early, we see the opposite the railway station there is a very new building, with a visitor centre, will go and see.

Find here the information you can obtain free of charge. Free computer to the Internet, spacious Chair, pleasant air-conditioned, really shuangdai. A young couple of Germany is there waiting, chat, time passed quickly.

Very few people on the train, the whole compartment only 7 people.

Don't know if people rarely, night car very cold, we all can wrap fabric is wrapped up in the body, or again increased my cold condition. Alas, this day was to dry up, and then people froze, really strange.

We drink a lot of fruit juice, also fitted with a bottle of orange juice, parting gift an essential balm（20G） give little boy as a present.

In the end is not assured, and so we put your luggage, he once again came to the car, put out a hand to drivers to confirm price, they spoke Arabic we could not understand, but they look I can guess that the driver was very angry, means that people of foreigners what money you heartache. Small handsome guy ignored drivers, we reach out a hand and said "fifty", we know, thanks to him again and again.

To the airport, once again encounter a bad sign.
